(205.188.116.143) | This Lent for our Wednesday evenings after soup and stuff at 6:30, we will gather in the Church for 'Stations of the Cross'. From the earliest times, Christians have made pilgrimages to the Holy Land to visit places sanctified by the events in our Lord's earthly life. Especially pilgrimages along the path our Lord took on the first Good Friday. These pilgrimages would stop (or make stations) for prayer and meditation at the various places where special events took place. Now it is customary to set these stations along the inside walls of Catholic Christian Churches. Come and walk the fourteen beautiful meditations about our Lord's journey toward Calvary. After the Stations, we will have the 'Chaplet of Divine Mercy'. At this service, the Host (which has been consecrated at our Sunday Eucharist) is placed in a Monstrance to be adored while the Chaplet is recited using ordinary rosary beads of five decades. This can be a special time to be with our Lord, as we adore Him. After the Chaplet, we will have communion from the reserved Sacrament.
